Date Night with "Date Night"

We used to go to the movies all the time…that is, before the kids came along and made movie rentals more of a reality for us. So, in my mind, when we do go to a movie, it’s got to be a winner. For me, that usually means it’s Oscar worthy…which all but eliminates the entire genre of “funny films”. So, it was a bit of a break from the norm that I found myself asking my husband to go see Date Night with me on opening weekend. With lead actors, Tina Fey and Steve Carell dishing up some humour I figured it was worth the gamble. And…it did not disappoint! It’s been a long time since I’ve heard an entire theatre of adults belly laughing!! Whether it was the “pole dance scene” or the “undercover restaurant” scene that caused the most laughs is debatable, but what wasn’t debatable is the fact that every married couple in the audience could relate to the sometimes monotonous moments of married life. They’re part of marriage. But so is the comfort of a familiar smile and a warm embrace. Date Night is a great reminder that all married couples need to spice things up once in a while – try something new together, generate some excitement and fall in love all over again! Make a date night with your partner now – enjoy!
